[Verse 1]
I've got a girlfriend, but it ain't much more than
Someone to hang out with from time to time
And we like to drive around 'cause it beats being at home
And find different ways into town
But there're only so many ways to go
[Pre-Chorus]
And on my dashboard I crush an Adderall
We smoke a blunt outside the strip mall
And in the haze of a sleepless night
We drive and we drive and we drive
[Chorus]
But we can't get out
We can't get out of here
We can't get out
We can't get out of here
[Verse 2]
And I've got a few friends, don't have much in common
And would still I still see them without the dimes?
Just trying to survive is harder than you know
I want to feel alive but it's hard when time moves so slow
[Pre-Chorus]
And on my dashboard I crush an Adderall
We smoke a blunt outside the strip mall
And in the haze of a sleepless night
We drive and we drive and we drive
[Chorus]
But we can't get out
We can't get out of here
We can't get out
We can't get out of here
[Bridge]
Cause I'm young, broke and stoned
I am bored and alone, scared of myself
And I'm trying to cope with the world outside my phone
[Chorus]
We can't get out
We can't get out of here
We can't get out
We can't get out of here
We can't get out
We can't get out of here
We can't get out
We can't get out of here
[Outro]
And on my dashboard I crush an Adderall
We smoke a blunt outside the strip mall
